Don't by a german car they supported N**z*s? Don't buy Toyota's because the bombed us? Don't buy anything because its all made in China by Chinese companies? Hand back your Ipad?

I thought Elon, and Trump have been buddies with Saudi PIF since that 420 funding secured for privatization for Tesla...

Turns out only on the first leg with battery at 100% would it make sense to maximize range by driving a bit slower than max. I did this whole math based on my real world data from my Air Touring on 19in. Seems optimal then to do charge stops that are 5-70%, eat the extra charge time and have...

Let's be honest the base Hankook Elect All-Seasons aren't going to be great for taking you far off-road, if they are serious, they will offer some Rivian like All-terrains...

I am sure it does for Toyota to take up thousands of square feet and put 20 models on the floor...

Yes but those are global numbers YTD and they are not all in the same pricing category or size category as the Air or Gravity.

I wonder if #2 is just due to being in the 'middle of nowhere', any temporary glitch in the GPS and highway mapping disables HA. But overall my takeaways Very entertaining series! But also quite boring in the sense that here are things that one might expect to happen that didn't: More than...

I think that is why we need more details on the Dynamic package and ride height adjustability vs base setting. It will help to have the stilt presence around town, then lower it for high speed highway work.

I think there is a combination of trim colors, wheel size and colors and paint that you need to be careful with or else from a far distance it will look like a minivan if parked in mall lot with a sea of others. I think that is why the block the small wheels being anything but black...

Yup, I am done, and apologize for derailing this particular chain off course...

YTD from the Cox Report Model S 10318 Model X 15515 BMW iX 12027 BMW i5&i7 8269 Audi Q8 E-tron 6365 Audi E-tron 2066 Rivian R1S 23399 I can't do mercedes since they lump the sedan and SUV together. But you are right that sales in EV only are about 1.5x-2x SUV vs sedan. Maybe this is different...

Nice chart and look at the difference between the competitors like Audi, MB, Polestar and BMW which are about 85% lease...perhaps their lease deals are even better. Or the dealership model is encouraging them to just clear the lots.

I don't think that analogy quite works although I understand your point and sentiment. Current Tax credit is effectively taken off the MSRP, whereases your sales tax is already there and not part of it. If you were to tax the actual buyer I guess you could pass that cost on if it did apply to...

They are all out doing car show tours like Electrify Expo in Austin! Honestly probably a more effective use of getting eyes on the car and brand when you have a 2 product lineup that is very desirable.

Is it really a promotion if the sales are down 50% and therefor the company size will be down 50%?

Agreed, it's doable now. It appears the removal of the tax credit will help used EVs depreciate less, which then will have the effect of making leasing less attractive as a hedge and like @borski stated just embed those savings back into the payment. Not to mention the big price cuts are...

Not denying they made a good pick, just saying that Maserati might not be a step up from Lucid...

Yes, this part I know, I was curious if I can use preheating to warm the battery from ice cold just for driving from my home, not for DC Fast charging.

My understanding is that at 20 DEG F the battery cannot deliver as much current and therefor power and actually sees reduced total capacity when cold? I don't know if the tradeoff of 3-5% SOC using preheating is worth that extra total capacity from a temperature standpoint. Great video at 7...

This will be my first winter with an EV. How does one use battery pre-conditioning while on the charger to pre-heat the car? Is it only available on L2 charging or the Lucid Charging station?
